trouble purchasing uzbek train tickets with uk card

Tickets finally came on sale today but can't seem to buy any!

Have tried UZ railway site, 12GoAsia and bookaway. But all of them run into some glitch with payment. Have tried 2 different cards.

Any advice would be most appreciated

Getting worried!

TIA

I've been trying as well, but only on the UZ railway site (web & app). I can get through to the payment screen, though it takes multiple attempts to get the page up to put the card details in. I put the card details in, it says order processing, I get a notification off my bank saying they've taken the cash, it still says order processing, and after about 5 minutes I get a bank notification that the transaction has been reversed and the app/website errors out.

I've tried different cards, and as I said, the app and the website, but the same thing happens every time.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have a partial solution. I was just cycling through repeated attempts with different cards on the app and the website getting errors and failures are various stages.

At some point during these attempts (sorry this is vague, I didn't know it was important at the time), I was asked to connect my bank card to Link, which is an online payment service. I attached a temporary virtual card to it (which my bank issues on request) because I wasn't sure about it, and carried on. That attempt was also unsuccessful.

However, since then, I've been able to successfully book several tickets using the website and paying through Link. It doesn't seem to work on the app.
